A place for life. A place for the future...

2

Futura House, in historic Bermondsey Spa, is the future for City lifestyles. Futura House offers luxury two bedroom apartments and duplex/penthouses for professionals working in the centre of town. Also on offer are cutting-edge live/work spaces for independents operating from home.

The City is within walking distance whilst the tube, rail and bus links make the West End only minutes away. Bermondsey Spa is close to the bistros, bars and boutiques of Borough and Shad Thames.

3

DUPLEXES The top two floors have been devoted to creating duplex apartments with space and style. Each one has a top floor living room with glass doors opening on to its own, private, southfacing roof terrace, created for both relaxation and entertaining on a grand scale. The lower floor has a large kitchen/living room with a fully equipped cooking area, a master bedroom with ensuite shower, and a second bedroom and bathroom.

The designer fittings include glass and stainless steel lamps on walls and ceilings to cover the place in light and the stylish vertical chrome radiators, look slick, whilst providing very efficient heating. Hard wearing, but elegant matt oiled-oak strip floors are laid throughout the living area.

Bedrooms The generously-sized bedrooms come with fittings continuing the contemporary styling of the living rooms, including a stainless steel and glass centre light and vertical radiator.

The allowance for built-in wardrobes is large enough to cope with dedicated fashion followers, and a data point in the main bedroom enables owners to work in bed (you lucky thing!).

En-suite shower rooms The shower room walls are fully tiled in contemporary style and the floors are laid with high gloss tiles. The bespoke shower door is in toughened glass. Lighting is provided by recessed low voltage lights that are controlled by sensor, eliminating the need to press a switch. The WC is a clean modern ‘back to the wall’ unit with no visible cistern.

APARTMENTS The apartments on the second floor, are at the cutting edge of design for today’s lifestyle. The units boast south-facing living rooms with bespoke kitchen areas, and two bedrooms, the majority with direct access to a bathroom, some with an ensuite shower room. Designer fittings include glass and stainless steel lamps on walls and ceilings to bathe the place in light, and the latest vertical chrome radiators, so stylish they make a talking point as well as efficient heating. The floors in the living areas are laid with hard wearing, but elegant matt oiled-oak strip.

Cutting edge design for todays living

Kitchens The beautiful designed kitchens cater to the needs of the chef in all of us. The bespoke Italian units have etched glass doors and lights within and underneath. Top specification appliances include an oven, a five-ring hob and an overhead extractor fan. The fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washer/drier are subtly concealed within the overall kitchen design.

Busy cooks will appreciate the central grid switch for controlling all of the appliances from a central point.

Bathrooms The bathrooms feature designer chrome taps, and double ended baths with toughened glass shower screens. The WC’s are sleek and modern, featuring 'back to the wall' design with no visible cistern. A stylish chrome towel radiator is provided.

Recessed, sensored low voltage lighting creates a stylish ambience.

7

LIVE WORK Style finds its complement in the convenience of uncompromising specification and immaculate finishing. With separate phone line and CAT-5 data cabling installed, your home office or studio is a matter of ‘plug and play’ – The ground floor work units are suitable for a range of uses from offices to art studios or craft workshops. Being separate from the living accommodation, they are especially suitable for businesses where a shop window to the world is required. At the back of each unit is a private staircase to the apartment on the first floor, which is also accessible by the residents’ lift. The south-facing living room has a bespoke fitted kitchen area at the rear. The master bedroom has a superb ensuite shower room, and both bedrooms share a lavishly-equipped bathroom. The live/work apartments are equipped to the same high specification as the other apartments.

THE AREA In Georgian times, Grange Road was a fashionable resort for London's wealthy and elegant classes, who flocked to take the natural mineral waters from the spring at Bermondsey Spa, where Spa Gardens is today.

A picture gallery featured leading artists of the day, and there were nightly concerts and fireworks displays. Now the area is set to regain its fashionable status. A major regeneration programme is transforming the streets, driving the replacement of drab industrial building with smart new homes and workplaces, and Spa Gardens itself is being landscaped to new designs by leading architects Broadway Malyan to provide youth and play 8

facilities and a new Sure Start centre. Bermondsey Spa is close to the hottest areas of the South Bank, Borough and Shad Thames, with their unrivalled selection of restaurants and bars.

Borough Market is now the top fresh food outlet in London, and Bermondsey Antiques Market is famous for its bargains.
